New girl in town



Meet my new model, Ilse. This cute little girl is my sister's baby. I was babysitting her and I made her this little linnen kimono.

Hurray for Home Exchange







We exchanged house this summer holiday with a lovely family from the Provence, we love this way of holiday for several reasons. You don't have to pack a lot of stuff, it is almost like being home away from home. The girls love to have a childrens room filled with lots of fun ( boy) toys to explore, they loved the box with dress up clothes and didn't mind the lack of girly stuff.

Crafty Summer

Sofia made some gocco printed books for her friends


Since our return from the Provence the weather in Holland hasn't been that great, lots of grey and rainy days. The girls still have a few weeks of holiday left so I think there will be lots of crafty kids projects here in this house these weeks! Saturday our prize from the Crafty Crow funny food contest arrived, yehhhhh...., in the cute bag are lots of craft supplies to get our craft projects going.

Colours of the Provence



We are back from the Provence, we had such a lovely time. The weather was fantastic, the sea was heaven, the area is so beautifull we didn't want to go home! Here are some of the many great colours you can see in the Povence. Although I didn't miss my sewing and blogging I am happy to be here again and start again fresh and full of ideas for the new season.
